“Kwanzaa” Written by A.P. Porter – Illustrated by Janice Lee Porter
It is a book describing the African American holiday, Kwanzaa. It explains the important principles of the belief, as well as explaining how to celebrate it. I think it was wise to include a glossary because of the amount of new words. The art made the information easier to understand, as well as more memorable.
